Using the Level Meter
The Level Meter shows the level of the input signal in real time. When recording digital
audio, it is important that the input level not exceed 0 dB, or clipping will occur. Unlike
analog clipping, which can produce musically desirable results, digital clipping results
in harsh distortion that is undesirable in most situations.
You can monitor the audio output levels of your projects using the Level Meter. As a
project plays back, the levels in each stereo channel change constantly with the rising
and falling of the audio signal. The Level Meter shows these changes as blue bars
moving from left to right; the farther right, the higher the level for that channel.
Momentary peaks are shown as thin yellow bars in each channel.
If there is clipping at any point in the project, the bars in the Level Meter become red
past the 0 dB mark, acting as clipping indicators.
You can check your project for clipping.
To check a project for clipping, do one of the following:
m Choose Disc > Check Disc for Clipping.
m Click the Check Disc for Clipping button.
